Abstract

This talk will review the description of gravitational radiation in the effective field theory framework NRGR and report some recent results obtained in the radiation sector. In the matching to the radiation theory one needs to perform a multipole expansion which we present to all order. Furthermore, we will show how non-linear radiative corrections (such as tail effects) are handled in the EFT, how different kinds of divergences arise and how the renormalization group can be used to resum logarithmic terms in the PN expansion of the energy flux. Finally, we present results for the spin components of the multipole moments which are sufficient to compute the phase to 3PN including all spin effects and the waveform to 2.5PN.
